Modular Floats for Various Pipe and Hose Sizes
EZ Connect Floats offers a comprehensive range of modular flotation products, including pipe floats, hose floats, and cable floats, specifically designed for various industrial applications. These floats are available in sizes that accommodate diameters from 2 inches to over 26 inches, and are engineered to provide buoyancy for pipelines, hoses, and cables in various applications. In sectors such as oil and gas, dredging, mining, marine construction, and various industries, these floats support and stabilize pipelines and related infrastructure. Made from high-density polyethylene, they are resistant to environmental conditions like saltwater and UV exposure.
Our pipe floats are constructed from durable, UV-resistant materials and feature robust designs to ensure reliable performance in demanding environments. Each cable float is a buoyant device designed to manage and support electrical cables, offering protection and stability. The floats are modular, allowing for quick assembly using stainless steel ratchet straps, ensuring secure and efficient installation. EZ Connect Floats also support pumps in marine and industrial environments, further expanding their versatility. Careful manufacture ensures each float delivers long-lasting durability and optimal performance. This flexibility and durability make EZ Connect Floats ideal flotation solutions for ensuring equipment stability in even the most challenging environments.
EZ Connect Floats - Hose Floats, Pipe Floats, Cable Floats, Umbilical Floats and More
Modular floats equal a one-size-fits-all solution for hose and pipe floatation. EZ Connect Floats are modular pipe floats and hose floats. They are also cable floats, umbilical floats, and everyday floats. All floats are the same shape and design, featuring float collars with tapered ends to reduce wind and water resistance. Each float is constructed to strap to any item and to be used for floatation, and includes built-in legs that facilitate stacking and transporting the floats. The EZ Connect Floats make it easy to add more floats to fit around larger pipes and hose. Consequently, pipe floats can also be removed to fit around smaller pipes and hoses.
Made of ultra-durable polyethylene material, EZ Connect Float are extremely weatherproof and made to withstand the element. The high-quality material also helps to reduce the possibility of punctures. Additionally, EZ Connect Floats considered everything in the design, including the nylon strap with stainless steel ratchet for quick and easy install and removal of the hose float and pipe float even in salt water. The design also helps prevent slip during installation and operation, ensuring the float remains securely in place.
Our EZ Connect Floats do not have a need to be filled with foam like the old traditional hose floats. This makes our pipe floats environmentally friendly. The rugged structure helps prevents punctures and holes, but the design also allow to add foam in case something does happen. The floats are designed for easy stacking, improving storage efficiency and making handling and transporting more convenient.

Materials and Manufacturing: Built for Reliability and Performance
At the heart of our versatile floats—whether you need pipe floats, hose floats, or cable floats—is a dedication to using only high-quality materials that deliver optimal performance in the most demanding environments. Our manufacturing process is engineered to create essential components that excel in dredging, mining, and marine operations, where reliability and durability are non-negotiable.
Each float is crafted from premium HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene), a material renowned for its strength, lightweight nature, and resistance to corrosion, chemicals, and UV exposure. This ensures that our floats can withstand the harshest conditions, from pounding waves to exposure to oil, gas, and chemicals, making them the ideal solution for a wide range of industries and applications.
Our floats feature molded-in recesses and tapered ends, which are specifically designed to minimize wind resistance and enhance stability on the water. This attention to detail not only improves efficiency but also helps maintain the position of pipelines, hoses, and cables, even in rough marine environments. The modular design allows for easy installation and adjustment, accommodating various sizes and diameters of pipes, hoses, and cables. This flexibility means our floats can be quickly adapted to specific applications, whether in water management, pumping systems, or oil and gas operations.
A common issue in many flotation systems is slippage, especially in turbulent or high-friction environments. Our innovative clamp technology adds friction and ensures that each float remains securely in place, providing consistent buoyancy and preventing sinking or shifting during operation. This feature is particularly valuable in dredging and mining, where stability and safety are paramount.
We understand that every application is unique, which is why our manufacturing process emphasizes both quality and customization. Each float is rigorously tested to meet stringent standards for durability and performance, giving our customers a significant advantage in terms of risk reduction and operational efficiency. Whether you’re supporting long pipelines, managing hoses in pumping operations, or stabilizing cables in marine settings, our floats are designed to provide reliable buoyancy and stability.
By combining advanced materials, thoughtful design features, and a commitment to easy installation, EZ Connect Floats delivers a superior flotation solution for customers across the USA and around the world. Our products are engineered to meet the challenges of today’s industries, ensuring that your systems remain efficient, stable, and secure—no matter the environment.
